“There’s so much we can influence for the paediatric community of patients. The earlier we can help and intervene the better There are so many ways to help babies

This course has opened up my mind to the options we can use to help the babies and kids.
I used cranial adjusting on a toddler, the child could sleep better and for longer.

I would recommend this course. It is very comprehensive and detailed.”

You really learn to assess and treat the cranium as a whole, learning about how all the pieces interact. There are so many techniques to learn in this incredible course. It takes a lot of repetition and practice for these techniques to become second nature.

I feel so much more confident treating infants now that I have more treatment tools. I don’t have any amazing stories to share yet, but I feel that overall, my care is more comprehensive.

Yes, I would recommend this course to anyone looking for a deep dive into pediatric chiropractic adjusting.

“I took this course originally to gain more knowledge about cranial work for the pediatric population so that I could help more of these kids. This time I was taking it as a review because it had been a while since I had taken it and I think I always learn something new each time!

You will learn things you can implement immediately in practice. You will learn A LOT! Even if you just implement a couple of things, you will feel more confident in practice.

Personally, I have been able to help my own daughter after taking this course and professionally I have seen more peds and feel more confident and comfortable with this population than before.

I have used it in helping a baby with an internally rotated frontal bone and helping a baby with torticollis.

I would definitely recommend this course to others because there is so much content to help you in practice. Other chiropractors would benefit from studying with you because they would feel so much more comfortable and confident in practice when working with pediatrics because of all the knowledge they will gain from taking this course.

The videos are great tools to be able to see up close and pause and replay to make sure you are performing the techniques correctly!”

“I just want to thank you for creating this online program for so many reasons! To help me grow as a practitioner to help more kiddos and families, (helping adults too), helping me stay engaged and learning, (a passion to always g row and learn), during this crazy season of no gatherings and travel. This course has been inspiring and I wish I could imprint all the teachings in my brain and re-watch the videos when I need insight. I know asking questions too will help! This course has also shown me to share more with parents about their child’s physiology and not avoid details. Parents are more engaged and interested in hearing about the dural meningeal, CSF, sphenobasilar respiratory connection, the cranial sacral, and the neural system and how it pertains to findings and corrections versus speaking about subluxation and its impact on function and healing. Like attracts like. I’m analytical, so why would my patients not want to know the details. Thank you for showing us how to communicate – the doctor shares were so important And I apologize I was not in person for almost all of them. I am grateful they are recorded to go back and learn more! I love the format of watching, reading and engaging as it solidifies concepts and someday soon hope to connect in person!

Thank you for all you do for our profession and the community of patients you and Nancy serve. This was a wonderful opportunity to learn.

Q: How has this program helped your practice?

I love the science the why the how and the opportunity to help my community more. I first decided or rather my decision was solidified to become a chiropractor when a doc I worked for while doing my undergrad helped a young boy that had been adopted, (no health history), with plagiocephaly. It’s always been a passion to pursue but somehow been held back – mostly belief in myself – now I know more and understand so much more – I hope I get the opportunity to make an even bigger difference to help kiddos and families start life and live life at an entirely new level.

Q: What are three takeaways from the program?

a) Helping parents understand the different areas we look at in a child’s physiology when adjusting them. The CSF, Respiratory mechanism, ascending and descending pathways, sutural integrity/motion, nerve system impact, the dural meningeal system – to help them see it’s not just about symptom “X”. b) The importance of the sphenobasilar synchondrosis joint in our youth. c) I have so much more I want to learn as the human body is so incredible and innate is amazing when it has no interference!

Q: How has it changed your practice?

I’m checking everyone’s skulls, whereas before I was only checking school age til great grandparents from the occiput to the coccyx. How much more I can help kiddos with more thorough assessments and provide more care versus only using some craniosacral I had learned along the way, (only the tip of the iceberg). I’m excited to share more, write more, teach my community more as I continue to grow and learn! I’ve noticed some adults with troublesome migraines being relieved faster. I’ve seen littles whom have come in fussy, (under the age of 1), settle quicker, sleep easier and rest and digest better. I hope to be able to share more so I can serve more from the age of 1-101. I too have seen a couple of my concussion clients respond much quicker as well and last longer between visits. I am grateful for this course and inspired by our profession even more! I am hoping through this my communication is stronger and more people grab on to a better understanding of chiropractic for them and their families within our community and outside of our community!”

My three takeaways:
1. The importance of the dural meningeal system in the growth and development of infants
2. How important the sphenobasilar system is in working with cranial adjusting
3. How to confidently determine a dural meningeal subluxation from a structural subluxation, and how to use that especially in more complicated cases

I have gained a significant amount of additional confidence and certainty in my cranial evaluations and adjustments. I chose to take this course for the cranial piece and learned so much more about the whole craniosacral system. CST is a huge buzzword in our community and being able to share with my referral sources and community that I have invested this time in the program to advance my skill and knowledge has also been so rewarding.

Being a DC that works with a lot of newborns with latching and breastfeeding issues, I have used a lot of palate and sphenobasilar techniques taught in class to help improve latch and breastfeeding outcomes. I use the sphenobasilar motion techniques everyday on every baby that comes into my office, and I see the improvements in their latch as well as cranial shape.

Yes, I would recommend this program. I don’t practice SOT, but so many of the evaluation and adjustment techniques fit well within my daily practice. I would share with anyone interested that they don’t have to practice SOT to benefit from this course.”
